Successful Quotes From A Successful Man

2 Mins read

I had the absolute privilege of meeting the great Pedro Martin Terra Group CEO recently for a short chat about his career and how he has found his success. As someone who is looking to get into the real estate industry, this man has long been an inspiration of mine and talking to him was a great experience. Martin worked for over 25 years in real estate law before switching to development where he has lead the Terra Group to create homes, communities, and building which have helped to shape the city of Miami. During our chat, I asked Martin if there were any famous quotes which inspired him to success and these are what he shared with me.

Successful Quotes From A Successful Man

Ralph Waldo Emerson

“Don’t wait until everything is just right. It will never be perfect. There will always be challenges, obstacles and less than perfect conditions. So what. Get started now. With each step you take, you will grow stronger and stronger, more and more skilled, more and more self-confident and more and more successful.”

– Mark Victor Hansen

 —Wilma Rudolph

Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Perseverance and determination alone are omnipotent.”

– Calvin Coolidge

“The secret of success in life is for a man to be ready for his opportunity when it comes.”

– Benjamin Disraeli

“Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success. If you love what you are doing, you will be successful.”

“The real test is not whether you avoid this failure because you won’t. It’s whether you let it harden or shame you into inaction, or whether you learn from it; whether you choose to persevere.”

“People often say that motivation doesn’t last. Well, neither does bathing – that’s why we recommend it daily.”

Zig Ziglar

“I will tell you how to become rich. Close the doors. Be fearful when others are greedy. Be greedy when others are fearful.”

Warren Buffet

Martin told me that he likes to keep these quotes on his office wall to inspire him, a great idea and one which we can all use to help us strive for success.
